User, when did you realise that college is a scam and most university degrees are worthless?

I make more than all of you and Im a plumber with no college degree debt needed.

OP here. I actually was the best in class grade-wise. Doesn't matter when the degree is useless and nepotism reigns.

What do you do?

For most people yes, degrees are useless and a trade would by far be more useful but there are certain people (mainly doctors and lawyers) where that sort of thing is needed. The only majors that should technically exist are biochem and political science.

Should have chosed STEM stupid fag. Most STEM majors make nearly twice that with a bachelor's.

>hurr durr my literature degree was a scam

OP here.
In this case, it would be the best solution to offer law and medicine as an combined undergrad + grad program as it is done in Europe. I have a PhD in molecular biology because I fell for the "science is great " meme.

lol

I quit college 5.5 years in. Not because I couldn't do the work, but because I chose to make poor decisions.
I make more as a college dropout than my friends that graduated mech eng

See my post below. My PhD is in molecular biology. Did my thesis on pancreatic cancer genomics. Now, I work as a scientist in a large east coast cancer research centre. As I said: 50k / year.
